Council of representatives

The highest decision-making body in the Student Union is the Council of Representatives which is elected annually among and by the members of the Student Union. The Council of Representatives is in charge of defining policies and it confirms, for example, the plan of work and the budget for the Student Union.

There are 21 representatives in the Council of Representatives. The chairperson for 2019 is Mr. Aleksi Ojanperä (aleksi.ojanper[at]hamko.fi) and vice chairperson is Ms. Mari Hartikainen (mari.hartikainen[at]hamko.fi).

All members of the Student Union can stand for the election of the Council of Representatives. Each member also has a vote in the election. Remember to use these rights!

By working in the Council of representatives it is also possible to gain ECTS credits: see "Student union and civic organisation activities" at this site. If you are interested to find out more about the Council of Representatives, come to the next meeting or contact a member of the Council.
